    Default Got my Wheels back, What do you think?

    finally got my wheels back from powder coat. These are some cell phone pics so dont judge on photo quality. Just let me know what you think about the wheels on the car.

    Wheels look nice, I've always like the contrast b/t white cars and black wheels.

    i like em. I love WS6's too. I'd like a black one. Anyways, if your not one of these "ninja" price people, how much was powder coating? I'd like to look into it for my wheels.

    thanks guys, i know the pictures suck, thats what happens when you use a 3mp camera phone on a very bright day. they looked worse than they do now. atleast you can see color now lol. Drummerboy, I am one of those Ninjas you speak of. I got my wheels done for $80 a wheel. Everywhere i talked to had quoted me no less than $140 a wheel, but i came across a guy that served in desert storm, i told him that i wanted them done before i went to 4th ID in texas, he said he use to be in 4th ID and he did them for half price with me doing the stripping and prep work. Here is an unedited close up of just the wheel for reference. Front wheel mind you, Rear wheel has a 1 inch bigger lip...

    The contrast of the black and white really does make the spokes hard to see, but I bet it looks great in person. Nice

    Im not a fan of black ones. I see too many of them. WAY too many black ones.

    and as for this, they werent ever all polished. They were a light silver. It looks like they mightve been all polished and were covered in dust/dirt or something. Thats what the sivler looked like.
